The Tatra Mountains, Tatras or Tatra (Tatry either in Polish and in Slovak - plurale tantum), are a mountain range that form a natural border between Slovakia and Poland. They are the highest mountain range in the Carpathian Mountains. The Tatras should be distinguished from the Low Tatras (Slovak: Nízke Tatry) which are located south of the Tatra Mountains in Slovakia.

Orava Castle, Slovakia. Built in the 13th century on a rock 520 meters high, the Orava castle in Slovakia is the star castle for the haunting 1922 German movie. The castle cliff closely resembles the Bran castle, former residence of Dracula and one of the most famous castles in the world, many having believed until recently that Nosferatu was shot there.
